Romelu Lukaku could have negative effect on Marcus Rashford at Man Utd – Rene Meulensteen

That is according to former Manchester United assistant manager Rene Meluensteen, who is worried for Rashford.

Lukaku joined the Red Devils from Everton last Monday, signing a five-year deal with Jose Mourinho’s side.

The Belgian is set to replace last season’s top scorer Zlatan Ibrahimovic who left the club at the end of his contract in June.

Ibrahimovic, who suffered a serious knee injury in April, could re-sign for United if he can prove his fitness to Mourinho.

Rashford stood in for the big Swede as United’s main centre-forward towards the end of the last campaign and starred in their victorious Europa League run.

Meulensteen is hoping to see Rashford and Lukaku linking up together rather than the England international watching on from the bench.

“I think it could be a really good partnership,” Meluensteen said on talkSPORT.

“The one thing I do hope is Rashford is not going to fall to the wayside because of Lukaku joining Manchester United. 

“He’s an exciting up-and-coming striker, he’s quick, he’s skilful, he knows he can score goals. 

“They could feed really, really well off each other.”
